Reports Anti-Semitic Now Broadcast On 126
NEW YORK (JTA) - "This is Liberty Lobby," a five-minute broadcast of "news" and commentary controlled by one of the most notorious professional anti - Semites currently active in America, is being carried regularly by 126 stations in 39 states and the District of Columbia, a survey by the B'nai B'rith Anti - Defamation League disclosed last week. Lawrence Peirez, chairman of the ADL's. national civil rights committee who made the survey public, identified Willis A. Carto. an "out¬
spoken anti-Semite" who founded Liberty Lobby 16 years ago as a front for Jew- baiting and other racist propaganda as "the un- publicized force" behind the broadcasts.
The program originated in March, 1973 with only four stations, gathered 62 more outlets by Sept. and broke the 100-station mark a month later, according to John L. Goldwater, chairman of the ADL's national fact-finding committee which conducted the survey. As a result of a recent contract signed with the Mutual Broadcasting

System, it will soon be available to Mutual's net¬ work of more than 600 radio stations, the ADL reported. It is carried by most stations on a paid basis but by some as a "public service," the ADL report noted.

Kissinger Denies U.S. - Soviet Accord On Palestinian Role In Geneva Talks
BY Joseph Polakoff
WASHINGTON (JTA) - Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger emphatically denied last week that the United States and the Soviet Union had agreed on the participation of Palestinians in the Geneva Middle East peace conference when it reconvenes. Speaking at a press conferece in Moscow, recorded by the State
Department here, Kissinger insisted that U.S. policy toward the Palestinians was "absolutely" unchanged.
He rejected a reporter's statement that the super¬ powers, at their third summit conference, had agreed to the entry' of Palestinians into the Geneva conference as "the Russians wanted." The. reporter apparently based his assertion on the joint Nixon •
Brezhnev communique which, in its section on the Middle East, referred to ''the legitimate interests of all peoples in the Middle East, including the Palestinians."'^
"Absolutely not," Kissinger said with regard to an alleged agreement on Palestinian participation.
